Orlando Magic deliver thanks to healthcare workers

Orlando Magic players are in isolation right now (virtually).

There are no squeaking sneakers or the sound of rims rattling and bouncing basketballs, the familiar sounds of the game everyone loves. Instead of gearing up for the final few weeks of the season and the playoffs beyond, everything is silent.

The league essentially completely shut down its business in response to the coronavirus.

And for good reason. It quickly became apparent the league could become supercarriers of the disease with players traveling across the country and in large venues with tens of thousands of people.
